I agree that would be a cool feature.  In my own case, I just want to
get rid of the cursor blinking when copying the region.

I'd like to have paren blinking turned on (it's too useful even if I
generally dislike blinking) but copy region blinking turned off (not
useful to me and visually distracting).
